That is a badass knife. Looks rugged! Damascus, elephant, jimping, Parson's...what a great looking package. That's one to be proud of!
Every day on this side of the ground is a win.

I got a sneak preview of this one and Mike totally outdid himself. That ivory is out of this world. I'd be half skeared to even cut into those scales they're so pretty. Absolutely beautiful work Mike.

The ivory brings to mind the tusks a close friend has in the main room of one of his homes. Two tusks that are 38 inches long, and another pair that are over 60 inches. That set is probably close to 12 inches around at the base. Maybe more. ![[Linked Image]](http://www.myhostedpics.com/images/Mannlicher/mg2398.jpg)

The damascus is a blend of 1095 and 15n20 forged by a gentleman named Clint Hamilton out in California. I thought it had some nice "rivers" running down through the pattern.

That's a beautiful, classy looking knife. I really like the size also...........could be the BBQ version of an EDC fixed blade.
